Program Highlights:
Through a blending of rigorous academic and experiential activities, students in this two-year NYSED-Approved CTE Program explore the history of law enforcement and develop an understanding of civil and criminal law. Students review court cases and outcomes as they relate to law enforcement at the local, state, and national level. Students use forensic science as a means to investigate simulated crime scenes. Guest speakers from the criminal justice field and visits to numerous agencies deepen the students' understanding of this career field.
Students taking this program are encouraged to get the COVID-19 vaccine. It is not required at this time. However, not being vaccinated may impact our ability to place students on internship.
